It has been exactly a year since we launched our podcast and released our first episode on 17Feb2020! And what a year it has been! We learned something new, made some mistakes, made new friends, got a fresh new way to enjoy the dramas we watch - by engaging with our audience and fellow fans. And we couldn’t have asked for better. In this episode, we share a glimpse of ourselves and our team with you. We’ve had a lot of highs and lows producing this podcast and we grew as individuals too owing to this. As a token of our gratitude to our listeners and a celebration of our tiny achievement of completing a year of our podcast, we present this episode where we speak from our hearts about how our recordings happened, the bloopers, the heart-warming appreciation we have received from our audience and so much more. P.S. The title of this episode is a homage to the lovely drama Because This is My First Life which all of us in our team loved watching.

In today’s episode we speak to two wonderful girls from Generation Z. Aritra and Imp. Aritra has grown up watching Kdramas and is an avid consumer of Asian dramas. While she waits for the return of her favourite oppa, Jang Keun Suk, to the screen, she makes her living as a book editor and writes fanfic at KhepiAri @aO3. She is most clued in the pop culture around comics and dramas and can be reached at @paulOaries on Twitter and @khepiari on Instagram. Imp is a teenager and one of the youngest Kdrams viewers we know. She is a K-pop fan first and that led her to watching Kdramas. She loves crime/thriller genre more but enjoys watching romcoms too. While we discuss their KDrama journey, we also explore how Kdramas have evolved in terms of LGBTQ representation on screen.
